ORIGIN: JAPAN REGION/PROVINCE:
An iconic Japanese green tea, Gyokuro (meaning “Jade Dew” or “Pearl Dew”) uses hand-picked first flush leaves that remain shaded from the sun. Laden with chlorophyll, its deep and vibrant infusion boasts high caffeine and an abundance of L-theanine, a calming compound. With fragrant notes of fresh greens and seaweed, this top--grade Gyokuro is thoroughly soothing: its flavor velvety yet balanced, its finish delicate. To savor it in its fullness, we recommend lower water temperature and multiple infusions.
